THE PREDICTION

It’s all to play for here with one of these teams set to qualify for the round of 16. A draw will do for Leipzig, but they will be aware of the dangers posed by their opponents, who beat them convincingly in the reverse fixture in Germany on Matchday 1. That defeat proved to be the last game in charge for former manager Domenico Tedesco, and the German outfit have been much improved under Marco Rose since then. This will be a far more competitive affair, and both seems scoring seems highly likely.
